Inter 2-0 Parma: Thuram and Mkhitaryan secure 21st Scudetto

Inter regained their Serie A crown with three matches to spare following a 2-0 victory over Parma at San Siro.

Needing only a point after second-place Napoli could only draw with Como on Saturday, the Nerazzurri made no mistake, as goals from Marcus Thuram and Henrikh Mkhitaryan clinched their 21st Scudetto.

Inter went close to breaking the deadlock when Denzel Dumfries headed narrowly wide on 10 minutes, while Nicolo Barella rattled the crossbar in the 25th.

However, the breakthrough arrived in first-half stoppage time as Piotr Zielinski released Thuram, who flashed the ball beyond Zion Suzuki in the Parma goal.

Dumfries squandered a great opportunity to make it 2-0 with 19 minutes remaining, firing over from Federico Dimarco’s inviting cross. Yet the hosts got their second goal to put the result beyond doubt 10 minutes from time.

Substitute Lautaro Martinez tore down the right flank and squared the ball for Mkhitaryan to apply the finish that sealed the Scudetto.

Nesta Elphege saw a goal disallowed for the visitors later on, while Davide Frattesi was denied from close range before the home fans’ party started.

Data Debrief: Nerazzurri scoop another Scudetto with games to spare

Inter’s 21st Scudetto is also the sixth they have won with at least three matches remaining.

Unbeaten in their last nine Serie A meetings with Parma (W6 D3), the Nerazzurri have now lost just two of their last 29 league showdowns at San Siro.

Thuram got the ball rolling with his eighth direct goal involvement in Serie A since the start of April (six goals, two assists), more than any other player in the top five European leagues during that time.

Taking his goal tally for the Serie A campaign to 13, the France international is also the fifth player in the big five European leagues to hit that figure with the same club in each of the last three seasons. The others are Robert Lewandowski (Barcelona), Ante Budimir (Osasuna), Erling Haaland (Manchester City) and Harry Kane (Bayern Munich).
